SWEET MALVASIA X12

Malvasia is one of the oldest white grape varieties and has been cultivated in practically all the islands of the Mediterranean since ancient times. Originally from Greece, the name of Malvasia is supposed to be an Italian deformation of the name of the Greek population of Monemvasia, from where it spread to Naples, Madeira, Canary Islands, Sitges and Turís. Its antiquity and great extension have caused the creation of subvarieties, but due to the low resistance to diseases, its cultivation has been replaced by other varieties.
